I can't believe no one has posted this one yet. A great song by one of the best artists around.

Intro/Riff1: E-A-Ab-F#m-E

verse: E-A-B-C#m-B--E
chorus: -A-B-C#m-B-A, B-A--F#m-E

Riff2: E-F#m-Ab-A (Basically riff1 inverted)
Riff3: A-Ab-E-F#m

note: I think the F#m's might simply be F#, but it sounds more accurate to me as
a minor chord when I play it.

Intro: E-A-Ab-F#m-E
[E]Whispers of ancients[A] buried by dust,
[B]Echoes of ages in [C#m]canyons of rust,
B E
Is heaven so lonely? I'll know soon enough

[E]Cold [F#m]as [Ab]the [A]clay, dark as a [B]mine,
Wasting a[C#m]way [B]blood, sweat, and [A]grime
B A E
Panning for gold, picking for dimes, ly-in' & waiting for better times

 E-A-B-C#m-B--E

The tools of the trade lie shopworn and old
The skills of the master done died with his soul
And the worklike routine is so lonely and cold

 -A-B-C#m-B-A, B-A--F#m-E

Cold as the clay, dark as a mine,
Wasting away blood, sweat, and grime
Panning for gold, picking for dimes, ly-in' & waiting for better times

 E-A-B-C#m-B--E

The land was converted, the river was moved,
The village expanded, some say it's improved,
But the lingering feature is a grim attitude

 -A-B-C#m-B-A, B-A--F#m-E

Cold as the clay, dark as a mine,
Wasting away blood, sweat, and grime
Panning for gold, picking for dimes, ly-in' & waiting for better times
